2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAnyone who was in the military has heard
this countdown phrase "x number of days and a wake up".
Usually you start counting when you get orders to relocate. Maybe your return from deployment date gets announced or you get a new assignment or complete training - whatever
Once you know the date you start the count... 28 and a wake up, 27 and a wake up etc. etc.
Well folks all that's left now is the wake up.
If Democrats GOTV, the Republicans must GTFO.
